M welcome to Cafe Zoom today we're going

to make fruit leather sent in by Rachel

U of Sandy Utah here's what you'll need

one cup of chopped fruit I'm using

strawberries honey

plastic wrap a cookie sheet with a lip

and a blender ask your mom to use a

blender first or your dad here's what

you do preheat the oven to

140° then take your plastic rat and put

it over the top top of the cookie sheet

like this then take the

strawberries or the or any kind of fruit

you're using and put it into the

blender then take the honey

and pour it in

there I like honey I usually have it on

toast

okay make sure that before you start the

blender the cap is on

securely blend for 10 seconds or until

the fruit is

smooth so that's what the fruit looks

like all chopped

up Dy that looks Dum

okay make sure that before you take the

top off the blender you stop it

first okay pour it onto the cookie sheet

and smooth it

out

okay okay you want to smooth it out

evenly so it Cooks

evenly okay oh that looks

good oh

yeah

okay put it into the oven for 3 hours

hours or until the fruit is dry but put

your cooking mitts on

first here we

go

okay remember it takes a long time for

the fruit to cook in the oven but don't

turn up the heat to save time cuz all

that all that'll do is burn the

fruit once the fruit is dry I take it

out of the oven and set it aside to

cool you can make fruit leather using

all kinds of different fruits here's

some I made with

blueberries and here's some I made

that's all cool and ready to eat with

strawberries but all you got to do is

roll it

up like

this

okay then

you going to eat it roll it up and eat B

Appetit that's really

[Music]

[Music]

good I'm Natalie ctis and for 6 years

I've gotten up at this time every

Saturday to volunteer at a farmer's

market this might be the worst part of

the day but things do get

[Applause]

[Music]

better this is a farmers market and it's

been going for 6 years and um Farmers

from all over Washington State come and

sell here it's one of the best in the

state I help set up the info

Booth I help some Farmers unload their

things I um answer questions that the

customers might have I just sort of help

out all around Market is ready to open

and because of that and I am the

official bell ringer I get to do my

favorite part of the day which is ring

this big honked Bell here so here we

go people from the city can learn where

their food comes from and who grows it

it's just it's a good place to just hang

out and eat and have fun it's wild

ginger oh

W I love coming to the market personally

I like the food this is my absolute

favorite sand at the whole market and

I'm going to try some lovely Italian

bread I just like eating all day long

golden raspberri

M that sounds

interesting oh PL very very good today

there is an apple tasting where lots of

the uh farmers will just submit some

apples and the public can come and taste

them I like the Fuji okay so

one one Cameo and one Fuji people come

and they can taste maybe um 20 30

different kinds of apples and um say

their favorite and we tally them up and

then give a prize to the farmer with the

best apple today's winner is Scarlet

Gayla right

[Music]

here

M very

tasty what are you doing I'm looking for

my last money well where exactly did you

lose is it over

there then why are you looking over here

because the lights

[Music]

[Music]

better do you remember when we did this

on Zoom well Amber M of South Amherst

Ohio tried this at home but she also

experimented with some other coins so

she inspired us to try this experiment

again but this time we're going to see

how many drops of water we can get to

stay on a penny and then compare it to a

quarter we're testing each of the coins

three times so just in case we mess up

on one of the coins we have two other

tests that we can use we have a chart so

that we can keep track of our data Lisa

how many drops of water do you think

you'll get to stay on your penny I don't

know let's see what one looks like and

then

yeah one one oh that's small I think

that there's a lot of room left so I

think I could get about 20 on 20 drops

what about you maybe

15 okay okay I'm going to just kneel

down so I have okay

one

two

three

four five 5 6 7 7 8 8 9

10 11 12 13 14 15 15

16

17 18

19 20

21 20 2 23 22 23 26 24 it's cool how

it's like a bubble oh I got to 27 and it

broke 27 oh mine too oh wow guess we're

like um 27 for

me and 27 for

you all right it's bigger than our

prediction let's try it

again 1 1 2 22 234 25 oh 2

5 30 oh let's try it one more time one

oh two 3 1 4

35 36 36 and knew it was going to break

okay so now want to try it with the

quarters yeah sure what do you think is

going to happen well the pennies are

copper and the quarters are silver do

you think that matters though I don't

know but because what the water is

landing on is the surface area it's like

a fence the little Rim Yeah that's

something that maybe if cu the water

doesn't drip off because there's that

little rim on it if you take the penny

you put it on top of the quarter mhm see

how there's that like Crescent that's

still there I think that's about 1/3

larger than the penny so I think it

would be like one3 larger than that so I

think I could get 39

drops like 39 I think maybe

37 okay just to make sure it's not too

big and not too

small one one wow there's a lot to go 2

3 3 48

49

49 1 2

[Music]

35 25 26 oh I got 26 this time cool 4 4

45

46 cool okay so let's do the third

quarter 2 51

52

53

54

54 so let's look at the results I think

that my average amount of drops that I

could get on the penny would be around

32 because this is lower than 32 this is

right around it and this is higher so

that was really above my prediction for

the first thing mine would be well I

would cross out the nine because I

bumped it oh so it was a mistake and

then and it' probably be 26 on the

pennies because it's like in the middle

so that was above your prediction too

yeah and then on this one I think my

average I do the same way did this way I

think it would be around 50 cuz this is

right next to it this is below and this

is above so 50 is above it's like like

11 above my prediction well mine goes 20

30 50 so probably my average would be 40

because it's kind of in the middle so

the quarter always holds a lot more

water than the penny yep try to

experiment with this at home think of a

question that you'd like answered for

example does a dirty Penny hold as much

water as a clean one or does an old

Penny hold as much water as a new one

write down what you thought was going to

happen

then send your results to the zoom size

section of the zoom website at

ww.billmelater.com

[Music]

build some bridges let's first try to

see if just the dollar bill will work

okay I don't think it's going to work

cuz it's kind of really soggy and it'll

I wonder how dollar bills get soggy it's

been in my pocket for a long

time doesn't even stay up on the cups

wow I really don't think that's going to

work it's like okay let's try it I have

an idea what if we kind of like folded

the edges of the dollar bill over the

edges of the cup cuz I can't stretch the

dollar stretches okay wait just

okay I don't even think it's wait let's

try it okay it's kind to hook

maybe this is really hard I wish we had

a crisp one I have an idea okay and it

might work okay I think if we put it at

an

angle I don't think so no it spread it

might spread the weight out I know but

it might kind look like that no not if

we do it at two different sides so was

if we put the dollar bill

like

here try

putting

nope I got an idea what is it if we went

like this and folded it

one and then folded it back like a fan

wait wouldn't that make it too

short oh

wow that's awfully short oh no it's not

it will fit sort

of the bill won't stay across unless you

hook the ends off oh wait

see un let just like stretching it out

doesn't I think I have an idea but I'm

not

sure

okay hold it like this it won't reach

I it's just like oh look it look you

gave me an idea watch fold it in half

right and then we take it and kind of

fold it like this a

little like

this so it kind of makes like a flat

surface oh look it oh if you fold it

like a fan this way it'll reach genius

man

genius kind of thin though oh yeah yeah

[Music]

congratulations here's a reminder for

you to become part of the zoom humongous

backpack ch

so we can find out some answers to our

questions about how heavy the backpacks

are that kids carry earlier on Zoom Ray

Alisa and I started to collect some data

well if you missed it no problem because

today Kenny's going to join the

experiment I'll show you how you can

collect some data of your own ready

Kenny I'm ready all right put my bag on

first we have to wait with your backpack

on then we'll have to r with off and

then the difference will be the weight

to the backpack because we can't just

weigh the backpack round it

wait wait yeah let's see that's 90

lb okay Kino step

up and that's 80 lb yep so that's 10 lb

okay all

right put it right

there 10 lb it's good that we arranged

this CH this way so if we wanted to see

the day with the heaviest backpack we

would just have to to look down the

column and see which one has the

heaviest which day has the heaviest and

also because we can just regroup all the

boys in One group and all the girls in

another group and then we can see you as

have backpacks boys or girls right and

that answers most of our questions

exactly we need you to be a part of the

zoom humongous backpack challenge wear

your backpack for 5 days Monday through

Friday do it each day as soon as you get

home from school record the weight what

grade you're in and whether you're a boy

or a girl

then send your data to zoom box 350
